Vote for Hillary, lazy slob.
Edit: Since you sent me a nasty email last night, thought I'd add to my answer. I WAS on welfare, a single mother with four children to support! I worked full time until I finally was able to attain my dream of getting off of welfare! This is the difference between your "kind" and mine......I was embarrassed to be on welfare, you embrace it!

Maybe you are a prime candidate to have welfare cut off! Why should hard working, tax paying Americans support you?
I wasn't born with "a silver spoon in my mouth", far from it! My parents didn't have money, therefore, everything I have I've WORKED for.
I own a house, its paid for, own a beach cottage, almost paid for, 2 fairly new vehicles, paid for, put kids thru college, and now I'm going back to college myself at almost 50 years old.
I've worked, at times, 3 jobs at the same time, 1 full time and 2 part time. I've bought second hand furniture, clothes at Wal-Mart, used cars that I fixed up to be dependable until I could do better.
Why must you sit around and collect the fruits of someone else's labor? You should be so ashamed of posting such a question that you should get a job TOMORROW!

I am going to assume when you say welfare, you mean your TANF benefits...
TANF is a state run program funded by a Federal block grant. This means each state's work program will have differences in grant amount, supportive services, and time limits. I am going to answer as if you are receiving benefits in MS. Some things may not apply, and you will have to ask your case manager.
Work program exemptions:
3rd trimester pregnancy.
Caring for child under age1, limited to 12 months total lifetime.
Short term illness, 30 days.
Domestic Violence victim, limited to 12 months total lifetime.
Substance abuse treatment, limited to treatment months only.
Disabled, must be medically verified, and exemption re-examined every 3 to 6 months.
Caring for ill, disabled adult or child. Must be medically verified, and exemption re-examined every 3 to 6 months. Must be proven no other support person available who could care for disabled person while you attended work activity (job/training/school). Since public schools are required to provide funding and/or classes for special education starting age 4, if the child is school age this exemption would not apply.
Please let your case manager know you are having difficulty. Part of her job is to help you remove the barriers in your life. If she is not sympathetic, will not help, ect. talk to her supervisor. Go up the chain of command until you have a workable plan.
The Feds consider cases that closed with a sanction to be a failure. Only cases that close because TANF no longer needed are success stories.
Have you explored all additional community services? Social security, vocational rehab, the public school, community action organizations.
Please hang in there.

Well richard I guess you have to find your way. A guy like you would probably have luck with lotto tickets. Thats kind of a tough question because it comes out to what kind of worth you take in whatever trials another person has to deal with to get whatever they get.

Get some training and get a real job. If you can't make it in this country you can't make it anywhere. Better yet join the military.
